The therapist is using modelling, where Juan is encouraged to imitate the behavior of the person in the video who opens the door without wearing gloves. This technique involves learning through observation and imitation of others' behavior. Flooding involves exposing someone to their fear all at once while systematic desensitization involves gradual exposure to feared stimuli. Aversive conditioning involves associating an undesirable behavior with an unpleasant stimulus to decrease the likelihood of the behavior being repeated.
